Thank you. Please could you advise if a copy certified by a local solicitor would be sufficient? I do not live in the UK, and the local UK consulate/embassy has indicated that they would not provide a certified copy unless the HMRC provide evidence that the HMRC would only accept certified copies by the local consulate.

Hi, I do hold the certificate - please advice if a copy of this will be sufficient or does it have to be a certified copy? Thank you.

Hi, I have been receiving correspondences with two different UTR numbers, and when I called to enquire I was told that the date of birth on associated with one of these UTRs does not match with my actual date of birth, while the other one associated with another UTR matches. I need one of these UTRs to be cancelled due to the duplication, but I was told this cannot proceed because the dates of birth do not match up. Could you please advise how I should prove my date of birth to the HMRC to get the date of birth corrected?

Hi, thanks for your reply but I think you misread my query. I have British citizenship (as well as holding a British passport which clearly indicates my status as a British citizen), so I believe I am entitled to personal allowance. Therefore please could you advise how I should claim a tax refund and whether the R43 form I submitted was sufficient.

Hi, I live and work in Hong Kong. I am a non UK resident but I am a British Citizen (holding a British passport). I have UK rental property income from 2021, and my understanding is that I am due personal allowance due to my status as a British citizen. However, after filing my self-assessment I have been taxed by the HMRC without taking into account my personal allowance for the year. Please could you advise how I should claim a refund? I submitted a R43 form 3 months ago but have not heard from the HMRC since.
